OK. Here's another one:
So, if you are senior, let's say the #1 pilot on a piece of equipment, you can bid a reserve line, right? I guess I asking if reserve and blockholder pilots in the same base have the samd bidding power?
Ok, it's confusing. Let me try another way.
I'm #1 on the 777, but I bid reserve. A trip comes up in open time and I bid it and a full blockholder wants it as well, but of course, he's junior to me. Who gets it?
It depends. If the line holder requests straight pay (called a White Slip) then he gets the trip. If you are both requesting overtime (called a Green Slip), then you get it.
